        "text": "A detached ADU is a completely separate, stand-alone structure from the primary residence on the property, providing maximum privacy and often more design flexibility. An attached ADU, conversely, shares at least one wall with the main house, effectively becoming an extension of the existing structure. Attached ADUs can sometimes be more cost-effective due to shared utilities or foundations but might offer less privacy than their detached counterparts. Both types must have their own independent entrance.",
